The PA 611 project includes full reconstruction of PA 611 creating new traffic lanes with two through lanes and a center left turning lane, and designated left turn lanes at intersections; installing a new traffic signal at the intersection of PA 611 and Brookdale Road, replacing the PA 611 bridge over Scotrun (near Scotrun Avenue), repairing the PA 611 culvert over Scotrun (near Herring Way), and repairing the PA 611 culvert over a tributary to Scotrun (approximately ½ mile south of Scotrun). Additional work includes new signs, pavement markings, guide rail, and drainage improvements.
The project is designed to improve safety and traffic flow for the 25,331 vehicles travelling this section of PA 611 each day.
Work on this project will be in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and state Department of Health guidance as well as a project-specific COVID-19 safety plan, which will include protocols for social distancing, use of face coverings, personal and job-site cleaning protocols, management of entries to the jobsite, and relevant training.
